Does the Office jet pro 8620 have excellent photo quality printing? Can I print photographs directly from my digital camera? Will the photographs look as good as the local photo shop or drug store?

I have this printer and the photo quality depends a lot on the paper you use. Use one of the recommended HP papers and the photos will look surprisingly good. I also have a big, expensive Canon Pixma Pro 9500 Photo printer that drives me insane. It goes through the 10 color cartridges so quickly (they dry out) I'm constantly replacing them at great expense, so I actually prefer to use my HP printer for most photos.

The Office Jet is not a photo printer like a Photo Jet. It does not have a separate photo black ink cartridge. However, I have printed some photos with it, and I was very satisfied with the results. If you want mainly a photo printer, buy a Photo Jet. If you want an excellent quality standard color printer and will occasionally print photos, I highly recommend this printer.

Just got ours today & it works great w-Iphone 6 (after you download an app on your phone). We printed a few photos and they came out great. So simple & easy to use!

Yes - I use just ink jet printers. I usually use a cheap printer with off-brand ink to print publicity brochures and maps by the hundreds. and the results are good. I imagine a good printer with good ink would be even better. It won't be as good as premium photo paper for archival pictures or for photo displays, but you can't beat the price for heavy duty paper for handouts and "Classy" publicity pages.

I am afraid you will never get close to photo quality using an inkjet on plain paper. The Epson is a spectacular performing inkjet + all in one machine, but no inkjet I am aware of is going to give you super color and especially blacks on plain paper. In fact you are just going to saturate the paper making a big mess. I would try to find some inexpensive photo paper. Don't forget you are going to pay quite a lot for ink............don't skimp too much on the paper or you'll be unhappy.

I am sorry. I don't know. I got rid of it last month and bought a HP Officejet Pro X451. For the printing jobs I am doing (very little photo) I like it a lot better. It zooms!

I have a T-shirt shop and use a HP Officejet Pro 8610 e-All-in-One PrinterIt uses the pigment ink which make colors more vibrant and last longer.I didn't think it would matter, but it really does, it made a big difference.Also the ink seems to last so much longer than any other printer I have used.Just as important, if not more, is how and what you use to apply the heat transfer.Good Luck

Nope it's just color printer. Very good color, but black and white photos are a bit dark. That said I haven't found a better one.

Yes, no problem. I have an HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus printer that I use to print successfully.

Not that I know of. However, I like my HP Envy. It air prints from my iPhone and iPad and is small enough to carry on trips when I need to use a printer to make copies or print documents from iPad or computer. It also makes very good color pictures. I especially like the fact that it will print double sided copies. I do not have as many choices of paper sizes from my Hallmark card program, but I have a large HP all in one Office Jet that is several years old that has (and still does) served me well for any other printing I need. I got this mainly for the versatility, portability and wireless capabilities, and it is meeting those needs. Not that I know of. However, I like my HP Envy.

I printed a PDF file on photo paper, the results were excellent. I use the printer for pictures; I am very impressed with the quality. Not knowing what illustration and materials you are looking to print, it is hard to say this would be the printer for you.

I just recently traded up to a HP Officejet, but my Epson served me well for years and yes, it will on default save your scanned photo as a JPG. You can also save it as a TIFF if you want to.

My 610 works and produces above the norm consistently, had it since 2007 and I've had HP's, Epson's , etc and what really makes the 610 shine is to scan, save to desktop, and attach to an email, documents, photos, text and flawlessy. In fact I got Canons website for upgrades for software etc. and thought why??????????????. If it ain't broke........................Good all around every day machine but a photo above 8x10 should be handled by a Canon, I believe 9000 pro or an Epson 3880 for superior print quality!

Im not sure...Im windows based. I love the printer though. But you might also want to contemplate that Kodak got out of the printer business to my dismay. This is my second Kodak and I have loved it. Pictures are great as well as the print quality. However, some stores have stopped stocking the ink which is the cheapest of anyone like Office Max. However, Kodak still selling the ink.

I have not used it for photos yet but overall, this printer is amazing. I love it. I do plan to use it for photos and I am not concerned about it. It has great print quality.

That should work well-- it's the shiny side you want. I have same printer and paper, and my prints are outstanding. Are you printing from Photoshop? I just noticed that I always select Standard by default-- but choosing photo shouldn't make any real difference like you describe.

The iP100 printer is an excellent line type printer. It's nice that it will do a reasonably good job on photos, but I use it as my portable printer while on the move. It fits into my case alongside my laptop and does the job. Good quality on word documents and accounting forms as well. Just don't expect speed......
